Mr Trevor, step father of Josh was a lazy Drunkard who spent all the insurance money and life will of his wife Mrs Hazel on either clubbing gambling or getting Drunk. When all the money was gone he searched for greener pastures and ventured into Josh's paintings and made millions over time over years, in fact he was popularly known as the Drunk painter. He did lie he was the painter and gets motivated by drinking so he was always gets offered free drinks at his regular bar. He was the main topic in Pottsville. So what happened to Josh you are wondering.. well Josh had greater dreams there was a time Mr Trevor had a visitor, a billionaire who wanted to make an endorsement in his paintings and paid Mr Trevor a visit but he met no one at home aside the little boy Josh sitting at a corner with a paint brush, so he walked up to Josh and asked for Mr Trev where about.. but only to find out Josh was blind and could not have known so he decided to chill a while. He went up to the freezer picked a bottle of chilled water after, removed his suit and placed it on the suit holder next to the door and and sat on the couch and after 15mins he stared at the lil boy Josh who was just 15+ then, he could see a very detailed sketch that made him use the F word 3 times in front of a child without caution. What he saw amazed him and made him realized the real man behind the brush or boy rather. It was a painting of a man without his suit holding a bottle of chilled water in his hand. That's me he said, but how did he get every detail from the exact seat he chose to sit and to the water in his hands and his suit he hung. So he decided to ask Josh, for his name and how did he paint that so accurate without his sight. But the story was cut short when Mr Trevor came in. Mr Trevor knew is secret had been exposed and this could cost him a lot of money, so he decide to lock Josh down at basement and that was the last time anyone ever saw of Josh for 25 years Josh was trapped in basement, only thing he did was to paint a million dollar picture for his stepdad in trade of a piece of bread per day.
